Re: [NTG-context] texlive-context problem on Ubuntu
Hi! I've solved my problem. I downloaded the TeXlive 2007 DVD and everything worked fine, I had no more problems with ConTeXt nor with any other TeX application/package.

> You did not install the latin modern fonts: texlive-fonts-recommended I don't think that package includes the latin modern fonts. The 'lmodern' package (which has ec-lmr10.tfm etc.) might also be needed. I'm not sure why texlive-context does not automatically depend on the proper font packages. Here are its dependencies: $ apt-cache show texlive-context Depends: perl-tk, libxml-parser-perl, texlive-pdfetex, texlive-base | tetex-bin, texlive-common (>= 2005.dfsg.2-1), texlive-metapost > I have installed the texlive and texlive-context packages from the > ubuntu repository with apt-get. It sounds like you're using the texlive-2005 packages from the feisty repositories. Those pkgs provide the 1995.10.10 version of context, which is almost two years old. Most features work unchanged, but if you want a newer version of ConTeXt (2007.04.17), follow the Ubuntu instructions on the wiki. -Sanjoy ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___

[NTG-context] texlive-context problem on Ubuntu
I'm having problems running ConTeXt on my Kubuntu 7.04 (Feisty).
I have installed the texlive and texlive-context packages from the ubuntu
repository with apt-get.
$ sudo apt-get install texlive texlive-context
Everything fine up to this point. Then I tested the principal programs:
$ tex --verbose
$ latex --verbose
$ texexec --verbose
I've made page-tests with TeX and LaTeX without problems, but with ConTeXt the
"thing" is different.
texexec is installed on the system, but when I try to build a test-page (a
very simple one) texexec fails. The code of my test file is the same I have
found on the ConTeXt Wiki:
hello.tex:
\starttext
Hello World
\stoptext
That's all. The resulting screen is too long to post it here, but the last lines
show this:
.
.
.
! Font \*12ptrmtf*=ec-lmr12 not loadable: Metric (TFM) file not found.

\relax \fi \ifskipfontchar...
\getvalue [EMAIL PROTECTED]@ \fontstyle }
\edef \fontstyle {\fontstyle }\if...
...
l.1
\starttext
?
As you can see, texexec have problems finding the \starttext definition, I
supose that this is related with the system paths, I've expended some time
(several hours indeed) trying to figure out what the problem is and trying to
fix it. I modify the texexec.ini with my system's texlive paths, and I've
followed the instructions I've found on the ConTeXt Wiki but all was in vain.
I get suscribed to this mailing list with the hope that somebody could tell me
what's wrong and how can I fix this problem.
thank you very much
